The Platform Event

We’ve had enough of conferences and seminars where the microphone is reserved for a select few key leaders. The Platform is an opportunity for YOU to take the stage and unleash the power of your voice.

When you register for the Speaker Bootcamp, you’ll have the option of signing up to participate in our Platform Event, which will afford you the opportunity to share your best 5-minute talk from our stage. Not only will our top speaking coaches empower you with real-time practical feedback, shared in love, to help you level-up your communication skills, stage presence, and delivery, but we will also provide you with a speaking endorsement from the Women Speakers Collective, along with professional video footage of your talk.
